Abstract. Although the silkmoth, Bombyx mori L., has lost the ability to fly, it has retained a post-eclosion diuresis. In moths removed from their cocoons before eclosion, or in those which failed to spin cocoons as larvae, the weight loss due to diuresis was 14% of the eclosion body weight in males. Moths which used labial fluid to escape from their cocoons showed a correspondingly smaller diuresis (5%). Both urine and labial fluid had high potassium and low sodium concentrations. Unlike post-eclosion diuresis in butterflies, however, the urine was isosmotic to the haemolymph. In vitro preparations of B.mori Malpighian tubules were stimulated by cyclic AMP, B.mori brain extracts and Manduca sexta diuretic peptide (Mas-DP I). 相似文献

Abstract: Recent expansions by Rocky Mountain elk (Cervus elaphus) into nonforested habitats across the Intermountain West have required managers to reconsider the traditional paradigms of forage and cover as they relate to managing elk and their habitats. We examined seasonal habitat selection patterns of a hunted elk population in a nonforested high-desert region of southwestern Wyoming, USA. We used 35,246 global positioning system locations collected from 33 adult female elk to model probability of use as a function of 6 habitat variables: slope, aspect, elevation, habitat diversity, distance to shrub cover, and distance to road. We developed resource selection probability functions for individual elk, and then we averaged the coefficients to estimate population-level models for summer and winter periods. We used the population-level models to generate predictive maps by assigning pixels across the study area to 1 of 4 use categories (i.e., high, medium-high, medium-low, or low), based on quartiles of the predictions. Model coefficients and predictive maps indicated that elk selected for summer habitats characterized by higher elevations in areas of high vegetative diversity, close to shrub cover, northerly aspects, moderate slopes, and away from roads. Winter habitat selection patterns were similar, except elk shifted to areas with lower elevations and southerly aspects. We validated predictive maps by using 528 locations collected from an independent sample of radiomarked elk (n = 55) and calculating the proportion of locations that occurred in each of the 4 use categories. Together, the high- and medium-high use categories of the summer and winter predictive maps contained 92% and 74% of summer and winter elk locations, respectively. Our population-level models and associated predictive maps were successful in predicting winter and summer habitat use by elk in a nonforested environment. In the absence of forest cover, elk seemed to rely on a combination of shrubs, topography, and low human disturbance to meet their thermal and hiding cover requirements. 相似文献

The cytosolic free calcium concentration of higher plant cellsis maintained at about 01 µM by the action of membranecalcium transporters. These act to remove calcium from the cytosoland expel it to the apoplast or accumulate it in intracellularstores. In this review, the properties and subcellular localizationsof these systems are described. The major calcium transporterof the plasma membrane is a calcium pumping ATPase which showsmany similarities to its equivalent in mammalian cells. Thetransporter has been purified from maize coleoptiles and isof Mr 140 000, binds (and is activated by) calmodulin and showscommon antigenicity with the mammalian protein. Higher plantendoplasmic reticulum also contains a calcium pumping ATPasewhich transports calcium from the cytoplasm and its role andproperties, together with those of the tonoplast calcium/protonantiporter are presented. Evidence for calcium accumulationby chloroplasts and mitochondria is considered. The review alsodeals with the regulation of plant cell membrane calcium transportand its role in providing intracellular pools of calcium forsignal transduction. Key words: Plant, calcium transport, ATPase, cell membrane, calmodulin 相似文献

In Anchusa capensis, where the polyploid divisions are restrictedto a particular time and place in germination, cytophotometricanalysis showed that the polyploid cells arise at the time ofconversion of the globular-shaped embryo to the heart-shapedembryo. In Spinacia oleracea, where the divisions occur throughoutthe growth of the root, these polyploid cells do not arise duringembryogenesis but during germination and subsequent growth.
